Best Legal Weapon to carry

[DickHardman]

I carry a knife, but only for utility purposes. Only use it as a weapon if I have to.

Best weapon is your head and a good pair of chucks (best shoes ever, black if you're cool like me, but they have other less aloof colors out there [like camo!]).

in all honesty, i think the spyderco delica 4 is one of the best all around pocket knives ever made. small, people friendly, reliable, affordable. i prefer the fully serrated version myself.

What a riot...

[TTEscrima]

yeah, also look at this one picture of me holding a beer.....

Well no wonder you're afraid of school teachers slamming you, a few more skittles and beers and they won't be able to lift you off the ground, problem solved.

[DickHardman]

You'll get no argument from me on that point.

im just one of those people and thats that.

TTEscrima...meet Dick Hardman.

yeah, im that one guy that people like to always describe as "larger than life". im just one of those unforgettable people that you can tell is a just a bit cooler than the average person right off the bat. people also usually take one look at me and think to themselves " something tells me that when that guy is around, everything going to be ok". for example, everyone agreed on another thread that if i were to be compared to movie characters, id be jeff goldblum in independence day or robert deniro in casino. im not trying to be arrogant or anything, im just one of those people and thats that.

Now I understand, you plan on bluffing your way through the fight like you do your posting. Being full of shit all the time might be comforting to you and amusing to the rest of us but it won't pass for self defense on the street or in court.

id rather stab someone trying to harm me and go to court much more than id prefer taking Triple H's pedigree on top of a car in a Dennys parking lot and going to intensive care. thats just me though, im considered to be a deviant, so do what you want.

most guys instinctively try to cover their genitals if you even pretend like your going to hit them or grab them in that spot, and you still want to act like shoving a 5 inch spike straight into someones sack has absolutely no chance of getting them to let go of you, or distract them enough to escape a life altering/fatal injury????

Do you just like to be obstinate or are you really this dense? A slam will take less than a second to execute, even a stab to the heart won't stop someone in that time frame. Tools have places and uses, understanding these is essential to their proper use, without the proper training you're in more danger from carrying it than without, your false sense of security and lack of understanding will get you killed.

oh well then we shouldnt carry any weapons at all, since they are completely ineffective against humans beings. cops may as well throw their weapons away too since people have been known to survive and function after being stabbed, shot, blown up, etc....

Yeah, I'm dead serious, people continue to function after being shot, blown up, stabbed with swords and hit by cars, you obviously base your expectations on TV as opposed to experience. Talk to any emergency room staff or combat vet and they'll tell you people can and do continue to fight after receiving astounding injuries even injuries that they died of later. Most likely the person won't even know you stabbed them until after they slam you through your windshield.

are you serious?? are you in denial or something? if some dude was about to pile drive me in to the hood of a car and i deployed the urban dart and turn him into a human popsicle stick, you dont think he is going to release his hold??? you are so confident of this that you claim its a rarity that can only be reproduced on TV???

Too much TV, stabbing someone bent on picking you up and slamming you won't stop you from getting slammed, except on TV.
